According to calculations, Li Cong invested US$500 million for 40% of the shares, and Qin Youer invested US$300 million and their Qin family's connections here to handle the rest. According to calculations by their accounting department, the total investment was as high as

The final profit of this community worth 1.4 billion U.S. dollars may reach about 1.4 billion U.S. dollars. This is also a very good deal. However, in Li Cong's view, such a deal is dispensable. If it were not for the Qin family

I don't care about the relationship.

"It's really rare. I thought you had forgotten about the investment a long time ago. Today I am going to talk to the landlord about whether you want to go with me?" After asking, Qin You'er looked at Li Cong with a guilty conscience.

She really wanted this guy to follow her, but she couldn't say it out loud, but she didn't know what prompted her to say it anyway, and she couldn't figure out why.

"It just so happens that I have nothing to do today, so I'll go take a look with you. Maybe I can lower the price." Li Cong said with a smile. He didn't understand anything about this, so he went to take a look.

It's also because you will get bored if you stay at home all the time. The biggest thing about coming to the United States this time has been solved. Although they suffered huge losses, the Skull and Bones Society's losses were greater than themselves. They want to establish the Octopus again.

The base is not a simple matter. The total loss of the Skull and Bones Society this time will definitely exceed hundreds of billions of dollars. Of course, this is a headache for others and has nothing to do with me.

"Haha, you are also very concerned. Let's go." Qin You'er happily took Li Cong's arm and walked out. The servants at home also felt strange. The young lady was not like this before. Why?

Recently this guy has become so kind after he came here. The older generation of the family are all in the Caribbean. The old housekeeper of the family thought that this guy was a liar, but this guy called the elders in the Caribbean.

After making a phone call, the reply he got was that he would listen to this person on everything. Just think of him as a good friend of the master and a family friend. This old housekeeper can also be regarded as an old man in the family. This is the first time I have heard of him.

For such a person, it seems that the Qin family still has many secrets.

The land Qin Youer purchased is located in the west of Philadelphia. It is surrounded by desolate land, but the air around it is very good. The Qin Group just wants to buy this place and build it into some high-end

In residential areas, you must know that there are still many people who like the living environment in Philadelphia. By then, one house will definitely be sold for tens of millions.

The entire land is tens of thousands of acres. Li Cong feels that if this land were in China, he would not be able to buy it even if he added a zero at the end. This land is too huge, and there is a small river in it. This land in the United States is said to be

It looks really cheap. To be honest, Li Cong himself wants to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy it. This place is definitely suitable for people to retire. This also shows that Qin You'er's idea is very correct.

, Li Cong wanted to buy the place when he saw it, and other rich people must have the same idea. The early negotiations have been done many times. This time, it is just to reach an agreement on the final price. If it were the original

It is estimated that there is no problem in spending 100 million US dollars, but the problem is that now another European real estate company has also taken a fancy to this place, so the whole thing has become a bit confusing.

The company competing with Qin You'er is a real estate company in the United States owned by Glencore International, headquartered in Switzerland. They didn't take a fancy to this land before, just because a senior official of the Qin Group

Recently, they defected to the other side, and they also knew some of the plans of the Qin Group. They felt that this was a very beneficial plan, so they got involved. Of course, they did not have to carry out this plan.

Yes, they just want to buy the land and make a profit. They know very well that the Qin Group has wasted a lot of manpower and material resources on this project. If they get it at this time, they will definitely lose a lot of money.

It's small, so they estimate that if they spend more money to acquire the land and then sell it to the Qin Group, they can make a profit of between 50 million and 100 million U.S. dollars. After all, the Qin Group's profits are also quite large.

York Ridge was the person Li Cong and Qin Youer saw when they got off the bus. He was the person in charge of the real estate company at the moment. It was this guy's idea to spend 800 million US dollars to buy this land. He saw Qin You'er

There was a blur in Qin You'er's eyes. Soon Li Cong was standing in front of Qin You'er. That guy's look made Li Cong very uncomfortable. I'm blocking you and calling you a ****.

*Look, Qin You'er was a little bit dumbfounded by Li Cong's actions. Maybe she didn't have so many ideas in foreign countries, but she was still very happy when she knew that Li Cong had this idea.

"Miss Qin, I really didn't expect that we would meet so soon. If Miss Qin is willing to consider my idea, I don't think I need to go in. I don't know Miss Qin???" This guy also mentioned an idea before,

That is, the Qin family still has a piece of land in San Francisco. The price of that piece of land can definitely be sold for 500 million US dollars, but this guy is only willing to pay 450 million to buy it. To put it bluntly, he just wants to take advantage of this.

, Fifty million US dollars is not a small amount, and the Qin family cannot sell that piece of land. They can make more money by developing it themselves than selling the land.

The U.S. real estate market has suffered a heavy blow since the financial crisis, but its scale is still huge. The direct reason for the continuous decline of the U.S. real estate market since May 2050 is the expiration of preferential home purchase policies. July is the first month that the policy has been completely withdrawn.

Month, there was a sharp drop in transaction volume during the month. From the sales level in July 2050, the U.S. real estate market has hit the bottom. However, through comparative analysis, it can be found that the decline in the real estate market in July was greater than the decline in the real estate market during the crisis.

Deeper, and the current July is still in the economic recovery stage, which shows that this round of sustained and deep decline in the real estate market may not be supported by macro fundamentals. It is expected that as the impact of policy weakens, the U.S. real estate market is likely to decline deeply again.

Not big anymore.

So if you don't develop real estate at this moment, you may lose an excellent opportunity. The several pieces of land originally owned by the Qin family have begun to appreciate in value at this time, and this guy took a fancy to this, so he wanted to get it.

Qin You'er would not think of anything he could think of regarding the Qin family's land, so this idea must be impossible, and Qin You'er would not let this become a reality.

"No need, Mr. York. Let's go in and have a good talk with Mr. Ram to see if he will accept our conditions. If he is willing to cooperate with you, then there is nothing I can do about it." Qin

You'er directly pulled Li Cong and his assistants in. She didn't want to take another look at this guy. Looking at him too much might make her feel sick, such a piece of rubbish.

In fact, Li Cong has some understanding of the U.S. real estate market. After experiencing a straight decline from 2047 to 2049 and low consolidation in 2049 and 2051, the U.S. real estate market has bottomed out and stabilized since this year. Latest

Data show that as of the end of June this year, the annual rate of sales of existing homes in the United States was 4.37 million units, close to the highest level since the second quarter of 2040. It once reached 4.62 million units in April and May, and the annual rate of new home sales was 350,000 units, which was higher than that in 2040.

The number of 326,000 units at the end of the year and the 339,000 units at the end of 2041 have steadily rebounded. The revised value of 382,000 units in May hit a 32-month high. While home sales are picking up, the housing price indicator that the market is most concerned about also shows signs of recovery. Freddie Mac

The U.S. house price index rose 4.8% in the second quarter, the largest quarterly increase in eight years. The national house price index increased 1% in June, the largest increase since November 2046. In the past 12 months to June, 34 U.S.

Both the state and the District of Columbia achieved housing price growth, recording the best performance since April 2047. It is worth noting that this time the housing prices are different from the 2040 increase in both volume and price caused by the first-time homebuyer tax cut.

The government's help for the rise has been limited. In addition, judging from the key vacancy rate indicator, supply and demand in the U.S. real estate market have now reached balance. In the second quarter of this year, the vacancy rate of U.S. rental housing dropped to 8.6%, the lowest since the second quarter of 2042.

The vacancy rate for homes for sale fell to 2.1%, the lowest level since the second quarter of 2046. From this, the worst period for the U.S. real estate market may have passed. As the core asset allocation in the balance sheet of U.S. households, real estate

Performance directly affects the wealth size and spending power of households, thereby affecting economic growth. As housing prices stop falling and rebound, the number of homes with a home value less than the total mortgage loan is expected to decline, foreclosure cases will decrease, and financial institutions’ real estate loans and

The value of derivatives is expected to rebound, and banks' willingness to lend will also increase, which will boost economic growth. The stabilization of the real estate market will provide "reassurance" for the U.S. economic recovery. It is worth noting that the recovery of the real estate market may even affect the U.S. election.

For the current president who is in the election campaign, this will be an important boost. Therefore, Li Cong is also very supportive of Qin Youer's use of large sums of money to buy this land.

The owner of this land, Ram Watson, was actually a big loser in the previous financial crisis. Before the financial crisis, this guy had billions of dollars in assets, but now this guy has nothing but this piece of land.

There is nothing left. He has his own small house on this land. He never thought of selling it before. But recently, the children have grown up. They go to school and study. He should also give them some money.

, so I thought about selling the land. The price of 100 million U.S. dollars was considered very good, but when York showed up, he actually told me that they could get an extra 20 million U.S. dollars. This was not a small matter.

In the past, he may not have cared much about twenty million US dollars, but now he definitely cares about it. The extra twenty million US dollars can even allow him to buy a big house here, so after careful consideration, he decided today

I made an appointment with these two people just to see which one of them has the higher price. The one with the higher price gets it. This is something that you don’t have to think about. It’s all about money.
